How to Reduce Your Expenses.

You can do 1t easily, and you will not have
to deprive yourself of a single comfort; on
the contrary, you will enjoy life more than
ever. How can you accomplish this resultr
Easily; cut down your doctors bills. When
you lose your appetite, and become bilious
and constpated, and therefore low spirited,
don't rush Off to the family physician for a
prescription, or, on the other hand wait until
you are sick abed before doing anything at
all; but just go to the druggists and for
Pleasant Purgative Pellets. Take them as d.
rected, and our word for it, your unpleasant
symptoms will disappear as il by magic, you
will have no big doctors bill to pay, and
everybody interested except the doctor), will
feel happy.

OUT OF SCHOOL-HOURS.
Important Educational Matters, whic
Every Parent Should Comprehend.

Important Educational Matters, which
Every Parent Should Comprehend.
There was need that earnest attcn-
ton be directed to the bearing in the
public schools on the health of chill
drcn. Both our present school system
and our hygienic ideas arc largely
modern. But the development Of the
former was more rapid than that Of
the latter. Studies were multiplied;
examinations more and moro rigid;
the marking system introduced and the
humble school-housc gave place to
huge structures as populous as some
towns. Still, more correct ideas in
physiology and hygiene are slowly but
surely doing much toward making the
education of the young a safe and
healthful process. Meanwhile, how
ever, we have not duly attended to our
pupils outside of the four or five school,
hours.
To guard against over-pressurc, We
forbid the child's having such lessons
rs will make it necessary to study at
home. Yet many parents allow the
child any kind of home reading, and
the libraries furnish unlimited facilities
for the use of books. And as to the
kind, children usually choose that read
ing which is the most exciting, and
holds the attention the closest and
longest at time. Now the harm of
this is ten-fold greater than an extra
hour or two Of average study.
Many students, especially in the
high-school, suffer more from social
pressure than from the exactions of
the school-room. They undergo, alto
gether, more than is physically safe;
the excitements or the ENDORSEMENTS
of parties and family visits, of matters
of dress and of late hours. At the
most cyitical period Of life, their sleep
is apt to be insufficient, their food in
adequate and the daily waste of their
nervous energy beyond the daily sup
ply. There is no gain in relieving the
pressure within the school-room, while
doubling that outside. Even the gram
mar-school pupils are not wholly ex-
cmpt from this cause of nervous ex-
haustion.
We expect the teacher to regulate
the posture of pupils, and the distance
of their eyes from the printed page.
Yet out of the school-room multitudcs
of children pay no attention to the
matter, but curl themselves down to
long and existing stories in defiance of
cyc-sight and health.
OF course, the teacher can not con-
troll the pupil outside the school-room.
Parents need to comprehend these
matters, and to feel their responsible
ty IN the case. Still, the teacher has
not done his whole duty unless he has
impaired correct ideas OH the subject,
and sought to make them practically
effective at all times. - Youths Com

the countries now engaged, interest

Bulgaria is political division of
European Turkey, which stretches
along the right bank Of the Danube
from the influx of the Timok to its
mouth, and is bounded on the south
by the main chain Of the Balkan,
which separates it from Roumalia.
On the east it is washed by the Black
Sea, and on the west is conterminous
with Servia. Its area is estimated to
be 32,932 square miles.
1t may be roughly described as q
great table-land, sloping with more or
less regularity towards the river, hav-
ing its surface broken with numerous
offshoots and underfalls OF the South

channels Of the many streams TO which
these heights give rise.
Throughout the most Of the PROV
